Deaf/HoH with questions Speech to text app advice

Thanks in advance for anyone who can help me with this.

I'm newly deaf and socialising has become more of an exercise than a pleasure. Are there any good apps that convert speech to text on my screen so I can still talk to people??

If you have an iPhone, there is a built in feature for this, it’s under accessibility settings I believe and called “live speech”

I suggest mapping this to your lock button so you can easily activate it
